[Pkg-texlive-maint] Bug#380088: texlive should provide tetex-bin package name (this is not #377106 bug)

Package: texlive
Version: 2005-2
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

Some texlive recommandation cannot be installed (tex libraries I
guess) because they depends on tetex-bin.
A way to resolve the conflict should be that texlive provides
tetex-bin name. Another way should be to  change these dependancies to
a virtual package that both tetex-bin and texlive provides This
should be cleaner but harder to do... 

-- Package-specific info:
If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries 
(latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong
output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the
error in your report. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of
other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps
to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures!

If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of
output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem),
you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that
can be found at
